I want to convert my 40hp yamaha/mariner to electric start, the problem i have is finding the correct starter motor mounting bracket.
the serial number is 40EL 6E9-L-417994, Having looked at a parts diagram for the 40c on a mercury/mariner parts web site which covered the 40c twin carb 6e9 from serial number 400231 to 423162 it came up with mounting bracket part number 97695M, i ordered it but it turned out to be wrong, my crankcase was different so it would not fit.
On further investigation i came up with mounting bracket 814985M but its no longer available and i am unsure if its the correct part. Taken off parts diagram for a 40 twin carb with oil injection from serial number 6e9 350001-up.
Does anyone have any idea if this is the correct mounting bracket and where can i get one.
i have attached a photo of where the bracket should bolt onto the crankcase.
